If you ever wanted an insiders view of the manga industry and the lifestyles of it's creators, Bakuman is the anime to watch. (or the manga to read, since it began life as a manga) It follows the lives of 2 boys, Mashiro and Takagi, from middle school to adulthood, detailing their friends, romances, and rivals. A really well done story with lots of great characters. I'm happy to have a few rough drawings from this fine show.
